7 Years in the USN....

Great, now that that's solved we can get back to Scott leading the assult of East Los Angeles.

Navy Chief, think you could provide some 16" support from Santa Monica State Beach? :uhoh:

-spence

Why do that, we can just send them all to your house.

The illegals or 16" shells?

-spence

Hahah, no the illegals the 16" shells would scare the fish in the river:hee:

Bring 'em on...I've got a lot of landscaping projects planned this year. We could probably get them done by Memorial day.

Can I trade 100 Portugees for 100 Mexicans.
I'll throw in a draft pick to be named later.


We need some authentic mexican food in Rhode Island.
Taco Bell don't cut it. I need some Carne Asada.
I need some menudo.

I miss San Diego

I agree...

Never been that impressed with Portugese food.

Dad lives in Escondido, the little mexican girls go door to door selling tamalies:drool:

Love those tomales

Love those little mexican girls. :drool:

Work wise, In my experiance Portuguese work harder, and are usually highly skilled. Go to any boat building company and mostly all the cabinet makers are Portuguese. BUT they are back stabbing, whineing Boss nut swingers They will talk crap in Portuguese right in front of you if they think you can'tunderstand. I have blonde hair, so they thiought they could get away with it, too bad I speak Portuguese:fishslap:
I live in fall river and I am mostly Portuguese, and there is more portuguese around here then anything else. Mexicans work hard too but usually never had the benifit to learn trades like in Portugual.
When I worked at the tree nurseries in the summer in highschool with Mexicans they only seemd to work really hard when the boss was watching, but they were all real cool, and vey appreciative and never started any crap. Much better to work with

To be honest, me either. My mother in law is full portuguese and her cooking is absolutely horrible. everything is over spiced, and I don;t mean hot, I mean just over spiced, and they over cook everything. ANd most of the time they only cook meat, not vegitables! How the hell can you only eat meat for every meal. The only thing I found good is the stews.

Mexican food is by far the best, it is also considers the international food of choice.

My best guess (never having gone to mainland Portugal or the islands) is that what we get around here is more akin to the blah Italian American cuisine so popular around these parts as well...basically Southern Italian inspired hard wheat pasta and too much tomato sauce, dumbed down during the war for a more frugal and straightforward US patron.

My inlaws are from st Micheal in the Aszores, so they cook what they grew up on, and it is nasty. They don;t do pasta at all, pasta is not considers Portuguese food at all.

Well, I was speaking of the Italian American food...

I would think (hope) that the food on the mainland has enough Spanish influence to be a little more substantial?

If any of us really cared we wouldn`t be here on a fishing site twisting off our opinions.

We would be out there working for or against it in a viable meaningful way.
